This outstanding all-round team performance ensured the Northamptonshire-based squad, and its drivers James Guess and Tom Canning, left the opening meeting of the 2023 series, leading the GTH Class standings. It also marked FMS’s most successful single racing weekend yet with its Inspire Engineering-prepared Aston Martin Vantage GT4, with a second and third place adding to the two victories.

Two third places in the GTH Class (for GT4 specification cars) on the opening day of the double-header meeting, and a second position on Sunday morning’s Sprint race, means the team continues to lead the class standings after two events and has maintained its 100% podium record for classified finishes.

FEATHERS MOTOR SPORT REMAINS IN THE GT CUP CHAMPIONSHIP HUNT DESPITE BRUISING SILVERSTONE WEEKEND
Feathers Motorsport [FMS] extended its podium tally to 14 in the UK-based GT Cup series at Silverstone over the weekend (29-30 July), but the ‘Home of British Motorsport’ was not kind to the erstwhile GTH Class championship-leading squad, after a significant Race 2 accident ruled it out of the rest of the weekend’s action.
Such has been the success of FMS in 2023 – the Northamptonshire-based team has only been off the podium on four occasions so far this season – that despite recording three non-scores at Silverstone following the crash it remains deep in the hunt for the GTH Class title. FMS is just 15.5 points off the class lead as the championship draws towards its climax with four-race rounds left to run at Donington Park (16-17 September) and Snetterton (7-8 October).
